What happens in Vegas...gets very delayed.

I have been stuck in a writer's block situation for quite a while now. It all started because I was planning on posting about my Vegas trip but I didn't want to post w/o including a few pictures. Cut to it being about a month ago and there you go. Here's what I've learned:

The new City Center area is freaking amazing. We stayed at Aria which was beautiful and not smokey. The wonder of dating a guy who specializes in designing HVAC systems means I know all the little details. His company designed for the hotel & it's supposed to stay that way.

The food in the City Center was fantastic, I had the best scallops (w/ braised oxtail no less!) & cocktails at a place called Sage. I wish I could eat there every day for the rest of my life & would consider going back to Vegas just for it.

I sometimes forget that not everywhere is like Washington with their antismoking laws. Here you can't smoke indoors and have to be at least 50 feet away from doors. Not so much the case there. Let's just say my nose was sensitive.

We went to Ghostbar one night which was pretty (view wise) because you know why? There was a thunder & lightening storm which every bolt lit up the sky. I wish I caught that on camera.

Oh! We saw O while we were there! Crazy flips in a pool, then the pool disappeared, and it was back again! Definely something I'd see again.

All in all Vegas was decent but unless there's a set purpose I don't need to return. And no impromptu weddings to mention on my part. :)

I totally have the same problem... I wait to blog about something until I can get the pictures up too, and by then it's just too late to bother with. I've been to Ghost Bar too and had a really good time! I don't know that I could necessarily pick a favorite place in Vegas... you can really make anything fun down there as long as you're with a good group of people. :-)

About me

I'm spiteful, snarky and it's all part of my charm. Most importantly it's all in good fun and it's always out of love. I've been told I'm intimidating upon first glance and to this day I still don't see it. Maybe one day I'll figure that part out...
